Just installed techco supercharger (pics).

I just finished installing the techco supercharger and it is awesome!! I have a little problem with my check engine light comming on though. We tuned it with a sct tuner and used the kenny bell setting since their isnt a techco one. We also checked the codes and it comes back to the sensor that goes hooked up to the upper intake manifold on the back end. I was wondering if anyone has encountered this before or if anyone has solved this issue? I will post pics soon of the car. Any suggestions are appreciated. By the way the sensor or connection Im taking about was left unhooked since their isnt a connection to hook up to it on the techco.

Leaving the sensor unhooked sounds a whole lot like your problem. Still you're also running the tune for a different supercharger. I know they are similar in theory but who is to say that a tune for the Techo wouldn't shut off the sensor and prevent your CEL issue? Also why use the KB over a Saleen tune? I know the KB is a bigger unit and the Techo is a pretty big supercharger but aren't they very similar in construction to the Saleens? Finally could there be some plug to cap off the sensor like a an O2 eliminator that you may need to get a hold of?


Just some ideas I could think of.

Good luck and let us know how it turns out!

What kind of exhaust did you put on the car with that blower??? Those SCs need to breath, did you use a 1 5/8" primary or a 1 3/4" on your headers??? Did you stay catted or off road? What about your mufflers?!?! Do tell, please!!!
